I woke up to warm breath against my neck and half my view blocked by messy black hair. As my brain starts to process what's happening, my memories from last night come flooding back. It all starts to make sense now.

There are just two things that don't add up. One, where my shirt went. Two, why Pierre and I are cuddling. I'm not complaining or anything; it's just that I thought he wouldn't want to do that kind of thing with me. He had his arm tightly wrapped around my waist, holding me in place on the bed.

While I try to fill in the blanks in my mind, I feel Pierre pull me closer to him. I didn't even think that was possible. We were so close that I could feel each definition of his abs with each breath he took.

Meanwhile, Pierre had started to wake up."Morning," he mumbled into my neck.His voice was deep and raspy; the vibration his words had on my skin sent shivers down my spine. It also sent blood rushing through my body."Morning, princess," I jokingly spoke back to confirm I was awake. To my delight, I felt him smile against my neck.

After a few minutes of laying there wrapped in Pierre's arms, I had to get up.

"Pierre?"

"Hm?" Somehow, he was still half asleep.

"I need you to let go of me."

"Whyyyyyyyy?"

God, he's so adorable when he's clingy. "I need to go have a shower, and besides, I don't want to miss breakfast; the food here is really good."

"Mmmm." His grip only got tighter.

"Pierre, please?" I practically beg.

"Fine." Reluctantly, he let go.

I climbed out of the bed and walked into the bathroom. I locked the door behind me and turned on the shower to its hottest temperature.

Just as I was about to take off my swim shorts that I had slept in, I realized that I needed to borrow Pierre's toiletries.

Unlocking the door, I saw Pierre still laying where I left him. I gently shook his shoulder, and that seemed to finally wake him up completely.

"Hey, Pierre? Can I borrow your toiletries?"

"Yeah, sure, no need to ask."

"Thank you. Where are they?" Sitting up, he pointed to the bathroom bench."Should be next to the sink."

With that, I walked back into the bathroom, once again locking the door behind me. I then started looking for Pierre's toiletries, and lo and behold, they were right where he said they would be; I completely missed them the first time.

Taking off my swim shorts and grabbing the shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, I stepped into the shower. The hot water felt wonderful running down my body. As I stood under the water, my mind kept going back to how I woke up this morning. And for the second time this morning, I felt blood rush down my body.

Knowing what was going to happen if I didn't do something about this, I started to think about other things. Like how hard I was going to have to train once I burned all those calories from breakfast, or opening my own restaurant. As I'm thinking about all of this, I wash my hair to give my mind something else to focus on just as a precaution.

Just as I finish washing my hair, I notice that distracting myself worked. I turn off the shower and wrap a towel around my body. I go to the bench for my clothes so I can get dressed. However, as soon as I get there, it's only then I realize the mistake I had made. So with a towel around my waist, I unlock the door and open it slightly.
